Hello, We are working on a proposal to digitize several thousand pre-1900 Hebrew books. Does anyone have experience with and can you recommend OCR software that can handle both regular Hebrew and Rashi script?
I saw that the Society for the Preservation of Hebrew Books (www.hebrewbooks.org<http://www.hebrewbooks.org>) used the Ligature software for this purpose. Does anyone have experience with this software? Does anyone have experience with OCR scanners that can handle such a large project with materials that have condition issues? Thanks in advance for your advice! Caroline Caroline R.
